Who does not like to feel special, different … as if it were unique on the planet? I think everyone at some point has made us feel that way with a word, with a caress, with a gesture or preparing us some unexpected surprise. This great insight that moves the world was the origin of the idea of Hotels with a single room, an idea that from my point of view has its advantages and disadvantages, but what can not be denied is that it supposes the summum of the exclusivity. In a similar way, the single-table restaurants appeared (of which we will talk later), totally focused on the enjoyment of the diner … in short, an idea that seems to give of itself in the business world.

This week we talk about …

Intimate hotels with just one room

On the top floor of a small café in the Vesterbro district o Copenhague Denmark, the double room of the Central Hotel is only about 12 square meters and can accommodate up to two people. It was built in 1905 with the aim of housing the shoemaker who had his footwear shop downstairs, rehabilitating after World War II as a first jewelry store and after coffee shop. In 2013 opened its doors as a hotel for the first time and currently the price of the room with breakfast is about 240 € approx. If you are excited to discover it, this is its web.

This tiny hotel is located on Lake Malaren in Sweden and seems to have incredible success among the executives of large companies, who come to him to disconnect completely from the world, the telephone and the secretary … Almost like a floating submarine, part of the room is submerged 3 meters in the lake to enjoy the aquatic environment and its builder, Mikael Grenberg, devised it so that the public enjoyed its work of art in the year 2000. It is built on the basis of style of the traditional Swedish cottages and has a room with two beds, electric cooker and heating. Along with the keys, you are given a motorboat to be able to move from the pier and is only in operation from April to October. Its price, about 150 € per night. More info on its web.

In the historic center of Amsterdam we find this unique multidisciplinary space that combines accommodation with spa and art exhibitions. It is a nice apartment with a living room, a bedroom, a bathroom and a fully equipped kitchen in an attic with cafeteria and garden. They say that the restaurant is amazing and that staying in it makes you feel modern and special. The apartment is also rented for small group parties, and the views from the windows are amazing. If you feel like booking it, you can do it here.

If traveling to Angkor is something seductive, imagine being able to do so by staying at a hotel like The One, with a unique suite, equipped with the latest in technology. The hotel has a shop and lobby on the ground floor and a terrace with dining table and a jacuzzi on the top floor, all for use by the client or the couple who occupy it. In addition, the hotel offers original packs such as Good Karma, which puts you in contact with community charities, Arts that tours the local galleries or Memory, which allows you to record the best of your stay and the one you edit a DVD for the memory. And prices start at $ 250 a night. Take a look at their web.

Continuing with our list, and right in an old television tower – Tower Park – more than 200 meters high in Prague, this establishment has a suite where the most impressive are the views of the capital from the wide glass that opens directly in front of the bed … in fact could be considered the highest viewpoint in the whole Czech Republic. The tower has a restaurant and its capsule – room is spacious, elegant and has a spectacular bathroom. In this case, prices are higher and around € 500 per night. Here I leave the web.

This penthouse apartment is located in a strategic area between the Trevi Fountain and the Pantheon. It houses an apartment for two with a kitchen (with personal chef option), bathroom and living room in a 17th century palace. Ultramodern and “cream of the cream”, since it has a concierge service available to the customer 24h. The establishment has been open since 2009 and its creator, Armando Manni, is a famous producer of olive oil. Privacy, tranquility and the feeling of being at home in the center of the eternal city, and all the luxury of the world according to its price, about 600 € per night. Web.

Another hotel that is described as “the smallest hotel in the World” is the German Eh’Haeusl, which barely measures 56 square meters and was built in 1728 for newly married marriages, as the law forced them to have a home. Current lovers are still eager to stay there (it still retains its original decor), and that makes it difficult to book it. The room has a flat screen, fireplace, piped music and massage bath, and its price with breakfast included is about € 240 per night. All info aquí.

In Helsinki (Finland) in a building from the twenties located in the neighborhood of Kallio, a trendy place in the city, we find this place in which the only room measures only 30 square meters and is decorated with a wallpaper of vintage air, as of the sixties, designed by the Finnish artist Janne Hänninen. An intimate, warm, and very retro experience that also has a complete kitchen. The hotel has no reception and upon arrival the owners welcome you to give you the keys, so the deal is closer and familiar. Its price is about 120 € per night although for longer stays the price decreases, and this is their Facebook.

In the middle of the Latin Quarter of Paris, this accommodation consists of a room of 45 square meters in which the most striking is the bed suspended in the air by wires in front of a glass window with views of the city. A romantic nest of love for a weekend in this beautiful city in which the lighting changes depending on the mood, the bathroom has steam bath and the decoration is carefully detailed. Some € 180 per night.

And we ended up with the original Coqui Coqui, in Merida (Yucatan): during the day it is an exclusive perfumery and that at night it becomes an exclusive boutique hotel with a unique room of colonial style and bohemian air. Exhaust character for the vibrant city life and wonderful building of 1903 on which it sits. The decadent Belle Époque atmosphere permeates the shop with its high-end local perfumes and crafts, and its L’Épicerie bar-restaurant in the backyard stands out for its freshly brewed coffee and gourmet dishes. In addition, the property has an urban spa. Its price, about € 300 per night. More info aquí.
